I tell you what, some of the under ambitious suggestions are more staggering than the so called over ambitious! Brabin?! Bignot?! Burnett?!? FFS. Middling conference managers at best?!

Who is 'Mills?'

May not mean much at this stage but Adkins is now 1/3 with Skybet.


Well when Hurst was 1/3 for the Shrewsbury job, it seemed a done deal. Here's hoping.

Quoted from acko338
The Cowley brothers are slowly building up a good reputation for taking teams and improving them - Grimsby have certainly suffered from their tactical acumen, and Lincoln are certainly improving this season under their tutelage.

If both Town (and they) are ambitious, and finances could be agreed for compensation and salaries, they could be an ideal pairing to replace the two that have moved on.

My personal opinion is that an ambitious pairing would be both frugally correct, and right for keeping distance from the players currently here. They have not played square pegs in round holes wherever they have been in charge, and are the right age and professional attitude to improve a team towards a promotion push.


Far far too soon for them, no league experience FFS they were school teachers this time last year

I can just about see why Bignot might at least be given some thought but Brabin FFS? As for 'Mills', I presume he means Gary rather than John or Heather. That'll be the one sacked by Conference Wrexham in the past fortnight.

Consensus seems to be that Adkins would be the ideal manager but we probably cannot afford him.  Obviously true if he demands a salary similar to the ones he was on at Southampton, Reading or even Sheffield United - but the point is he'd have banked quite a lot in the way of pay-offs from these jobs and I suspect that for him the priority would be to get back into management and rebuild his reputation, which ought to be more important than money.  Grimsby would seem to be the ideal place to do that.  Just hope he sees it that way.  Curtis Woodehouse on R Humbs was impressive just now.  Clearly not ready for it just yet, but as a no 2 ... and John McDermott, likewise?

If Adkins was to come here then it would be for all the right reasons , I'm guessing that any manager that has managed for the last 12 years at all levels including the Prem won't be short of a few quid.
He wouldn't be coming here for the money

Gary Mills is manager of York.
Heather Mills would be good though
